Although it is recognized that cadmium (Cd) causes renal tubular dysfunction, the mechanism of Cd-induced nephrotoxicity is not yet fully understood. Mode of action (MOA) is a developing tool for chemical risk assessment. To establish the mechanistic MOA of Cd-induced renal tubular dysfunction, the Comparative Toxicogenomics Database (CTD) was used to obtain genomics data of Cd-induced nephrotoxicity, and Ingenuity ®  Pathway Analysis (IPA) software was applied for bioinformatics analysis. Based on the perturbed toxicity pathways during the process of Cd-induced nephrotoxicity, we established the MOA of Cd-induced renal tubular dysfunction and assessed its confidence with the tailored Bradford Hill criteria. Bioinformatics analysis showed that oxidative stress, DNA damage, cell cycle arrest, and cell death were the probable key events (KEs). Assessment of the overall MOA of Cd-induced renal tubular dysfunction indicated a moderate confidence, and there are still some evidence gaps to be filled by rational experimental designs.
